THIS CAR STARTED OUT AS SOLID, STRAIGHT RUST FREE UNIBODY BEFORE IT WAS COMPLETELY STRIPED TO BARE METAL AND RESTORED.

THE INTERIOR WAS FULLY REFINISHED IN GENUINE RED LEATHER, ALL METICULOUSLY HANDCRAFTED USING THE ORIGINAL LEATHER COVERS AS PATTERNS. THE END RESULT WAS TIME CONSUMING BUT WAS LEFT PERFECT AND SHOW QUALITY DOWN TO THE LAST STITCH.
THE CONVERTIBLE TOP SYSTEM WAS DISMANTLED, PAINTED AND PROFESSIONALLY REASSEMBLED AND FUNCTIONS FLAWLESSLY. WHILE A NEW WHITE TOP WAS INSTALLED AND THE COMPARTMENT WAS FINISHED IN ITS ORIGINAL PATTERNS.
